Emily called the survivors into the kitchen, "What is it this time?"  Jose asked.  He had just got home from a match ten minutes ago, thus getting no sleep,

"I thought you all could bake a cake. . . Handcuffed to somebody else!  It'll teach you all to work together!"  Emily exclaimed.  She whipped out a hat as the other survivors stumbled into the kitchen half-asleep.

"Where's everyone else?"  Emily asked. She could count everyone in the kitchen with one hand.

"They're all probably in matches."  Martha replied,

"Moving on, the pairs for the baking challenge are: Naib and Martha-"

"Why are we ALWAYS paired together?"  Martha huffed.  Emily continued,

"And Kevin and Vera. Before anybody asks, NO YOU MAY NOT SWITCH."

"Wait. . .  Why aren't YOU helping us?"  Vera asked,

"I have to supervise so we don't burn down the manor. . ."  Emily said,

"Sorry I'm late!"  A voice squeaked, running as fast as she could, "What are we doing?"

"Making a cake!  Do you want to help me decorate it once it's done, Memory?"  Emily asked.  Memory nodded, grabbed a chair and sat down to watch,

"Alright, you're going to have to work together because you can't separate."  Emily said, she took out two pairs of handcuffs and put them on the two pairs, "You may begin!"

The group agreed that Naib and Martha would work on the cake, while Kevin and Vera would work on the frosting and put the cake into the oven.  Everything was going fine. . . Until Naib and Martha had to crack the eggs,

"You idiot!  You dropped the egg!  Emily's going to kill us."  Martha yelled

"Well, at least I didn't almost drop a whole entire bottle of vanilla extract into the cake!"  Naib responded,

"Um. . .  Is the cake batter done?"  Vera asked, trying to break up the argument before it escalated,

"We just need one more egg!"  Martha said, smiling sweetly, she turned to face Naib, "Don't drop it this time!"  She yelled.

"Sheesh!  It was ONCE!"  Naib responded, grabbing another egg, and cracked it with one hand, "How's that for skill?"  He asked.

Martha huffed and grabbed a handful of flour, after consideration, she grabbed the whole entire bag as best as she could and dumped it onto Naib's head.

Naib growled, he grabbed the newly made frosting and dumped it onto Martha's head.  

Vera immediately turned to Memory and tried to keep her quiet,

"Emily!  Naib and Martha are fighting!"  Memory yelled.  The survivors watched as Emily ran into the kitchen.

"What's this about?"  Emily asked, nobody answered her, she chuckled before bending down to Memory's height,

"Alright, Memory, sweetie what happened?"

"Naib threw the newly-made frosting at Martha, so, Martha threw flour at Naib!" 

"What?  It was the other way around!"  Naib yelled.  Everybody started agreeing with Memory,

"Well, Naib, get out of the kitchen!"  Emily stated,

"What??!"

"Everyone confirmed Memories statement."

"Woooooooooow, thanks a lot, everyone!"

"Oh, and to apologize to Martha, go clean her room!"

Naib rolled his eyes and walked out of the kitchen,

"I leave for five minutes and this happens?"  Emily said

She started frantically cleaning this place for a minute,

"Never mind, forget it!"  She exclaimed, marching back to her room.

Legend has it that Emily is still in her room, screaming and throwing objects.


Alright, so I made this for a short story contest, but writers block said to post it here so it's proof that I'm actually alive-))
